Abstract: This paper examines characteristics of the activity patterns of blind and vision impaired non-driving populations. The employability and movement potential of the disabled non-driving group is evaluated. Survey results of impaired public transit users are reported. Possible assistive technologies to aid in making travel decisions and undertaking travel are discussed.
